Savings accounts, the property of people of small and modest means, have grown rapidly and are the idlest of all the idle money. Every man I talk to has a new set of facts to offer me showing why a man with some money would be a sucker to invest it under present conditions. You can talk to men from ocean to ocean, and every thinking man will offer you some new ideas on that same subject.

The $10,00O he makes takes the same rate, as it is added income. He pays $6,200 of the ten thousand to the government for income tax. If he lives in a state with a state income tax, they grab another bunch. The most he can get for his hundred grand is $3,800, and he may get much less. That assumes the business to be very successful. If it is NOT,-he, of course, takes all the hazards.
